I need to go for a bit. I might be back soon though. 🙂

@seekjustice, good, you eased my mind on the whole Rain/Justice thing
@rochellaine, I think that has become my second favorite play. Anastasia is coming to Colorado in the spring but it’s harder to get tickets for it than other plays so we’re not going to see it.

I thought Rain liked Quillon, not Justice.
There is a lot of glamourisation and focus on rich people in Korean media because of chaebol families that control a lot of big businesses in the country so their dramas really reflect that. 😛

@seekjustice, makes sense
@rochellaine, I don’t think I did, not sure.
Rain likes Justice too??? I have no clue what those girls see in him when people like Jonas and Quillon are around. At least Saphirre could think straight 🙂

Not Justice, Quillon 😛 Chessy is the only one silly enough to fall in love with Justice.

What a Korean drama plot. 😛
If they wanted to focus on rich people, they can make it a R&J about the heir and heiress of two powerful business/political families and milk the situation for all sorts of drama.
Yes, I like that one.
Bye!

@seekjustice, I seem to remember you and @rochellaine talking about that a while back. Well, I better take back that second grieving and save it for the Jonas/Zac in book 3 you’re gonna kill simply to torture me, and possibly move the plot along I guess.
I never shipped Rain and Kendall so I guess I forgot there was ever supposed to be s…[Read more]

Fear not, fear not. I didn’t take out Rain (she’s my favourite, I love her, I wouldn’t do that to her). What @rochellaine was referring to was simply that I took out the romance between Rain and Kendall.

(was Anastasia as amazing as it sounds?)
Jonas was at the top of my google docs as most recently edited so I decided to read it again (and rip my heart out again) when I came to your comment that I never answered. Though I must say, even though I like Zac, Jonas is still slightly better.
@seekjustice, YOU TOOK OUT RAIN?!?!?! She…[Read more]

You say “modern ballet is weird” as if old ballet isn’t.Â

Well, theatre seems to be a very popular form of underground entertainment, due to the fact that it requires little in the way of money or supplies in order to put on a basic show. I’ve read about a lot of war prisoners doing theatre in order to keep themselves busy with something. I was only reading the other day about the…[Read more]

I don’t usually watch ballet. I did once in London but it was a modern, experimental dance piece that dealt with very strange and uncomfortable subject matter…
But I am a fan of Tchaikovsky though so I like listening to that kind of ballet music. 😛

I would be interested to know what kind of star-crossed lovers story your futuristic society will come up with. The society does not seem to really be the sort to glamourise emotion or romance so I am really curious.
I am very nervous at the thought of you over analysing my story when you read QOD. 😛

valtmy replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
Hi!
Sorry had work to do just now.
From what I know of your story, the society you are writing about is concerned about the ‘future’ right? So they may not be very into things of the past like Romeo and Juliet right? I thought Jean was supposed to be considered odd because of that.

SeekJustice replied to the topic Writers' Corner #21 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 5 months ago
yes, I see. It’s really interesting! in the movie version of Anastasia, the ballet they see is Cinderella, I believe, and it’s not really a big deal, but I like the fact that they put such interesting symbolism in the stage version 😀
I have been in a number of ballets. Never dancing ballet, since I don’t do that, but dancing…[Read more]

Chessy and Justice seem to be a polarising one. Either people love or hate it.
Everyone does like Sapphire and Quillon though.
And no, Chessy was never supposed to be particularly romantic. The romance between Justice and her wasn’t even supposed to be in the story!

Well, I’d noticed the Swan Lake music in “Quartet at the Ballet” (I’ve been a dancer for too many years not to 😛 ), but I hadn’t really noticed it as an overall thing, having never seen the play itself. And yep, I do know the plot (several different versions of it, in fact).
Oh yes, I remember that story. I’ll have to dig through…[Read more]

Hmm I am not sure. Pre-time skip Myeongwol is pretty easy to please by just giving her some praises and showing interest and passion in the dramas that she like. But it will be hard to wrangle out a smile out of post-time skip Myeongwol
All right! Bye!
